[Ag-eq] Cross Post: Earning Income while Living in a Rural Area

[nfoster at extremezone.com]

Hi Danielle:

What is ARK?

Have you worked before and if so what did you do?

I plan on moving to a rural area and have been thinking of things that I could
do from my home.

For years I've thought I would like to have a small boarding kennel.  The place
I'm moving to is in a tourist area, so that is something that I will check
into.  I'm also going to research what it would take to start a small goat
dairy.  I already have 4 very nice dairy goats and know a lot about there care.

Do you do any agricultural things that you could turn into a small business.

You will probably have to be creative.

If there is a larger town nearby where other people work maybe you could ride
with them to a job.  I've done that before and it can be a little tricky if
they are sick on vacation or need to work early or late.

Maybe others here will have some better ideas.  I believe that transportation is
the greatest barrier to employment for the blind.

Good luck.

Nella
